I recently came across these boots on Ebay, and had to share. The BIN price was pretty high (considering), and they aren’t my size, but all-in-all, these are works of art. My guess is that these boots are ~30 years old, and have never been worn. I’d bet they are ready to go out of the box…this proves that good craftsmanship will stand the test of time.

I’ve got a few quail hunts lined up for this Fall, and some of them are scheduled for when the temperature may be a little more ‘snake-friendly’. I also have a few fishing spots where some snake boots may be necessary. I’m in the market for some snake boots, and have a feeling I’ll score soon, but until then, I’ll have to drool over these:

Those are absolutely NOS judging by the no-longer-in-use GRO CORD soles. I have a pair of these with the green cordura shaft (non-zip) that on one March afternoon saved me from a right nasty canebreak on a farm between Ellaville and Andersonville. Thing lost a fang in the side of my boot and the strike felt like I’d been swatted with a paddle. ReplyCancel
